Engine oil Mobil or VALVOLINE

I dont know but i do know the valvoline restore and protect oil has helped my 330k mile engine feel like new.

I put Mobil1 high mileage full synthetic 5w-30 in both my car and my wife’s. The same gets put in the snowblower and lawn mower. It’s been that way for years and they both cut the grass and throw the snow from -30F to 100F weather just fine.

I would trust a 0W-20 in a Toyota or Honda. After all, Honda and Idemitsu invented 0W-20, while Toyota worked with Idemitsu on 0W-8. I’ll reluctantly use it in a Subaru(and it must be Mobil 1 ESP X2 or Castrol Edge gold bottle with Mercedes/BMW/VW and/or GM dexosD/dexos2 approvals) but switch over to a ILSAC or Euro 5W-30 once warranty is up.

I like Mobil 1 0w-40, has more zddp than most others.

I’ve been using mobile 1 European blend for over 100k miles, works great.

0-40 M1 Euro. Stage 1.

It was the cheapest I could fine locally. I was looking for Penzoil 5-40, but could not find the Platium Euro I was looking for at the time. The M1 is known to be on the thinner side, and I am in Cali so that works. It is also known to keep things super clean inside the motor.

stick with vw 508/509. Mobil 1 ESP x2 0w-20 is like $27 at walmart and is 508/509.... Also, 508/509 has a tracer in it so if you need engine warranty work and they drain the oil, they'll be able to tell.

I have a 2007 Explorer with 161,000 miles on it. Just recently switched from Castrol to Valvoline Restore and Protect. I'm not sure why I haven't heard of it sooner, but from what I've heard, it's really good at removing sludge and varnish that forms in high mileage engines.

Im using Mobil 1 ESP 0w-30 which is a thicker Euro oil here in Upper Midwest USA. I don't notice any difference is sound, acceleration, not efficiency vs 0w-16 and 9w-20 in a 2024 Rav4 Prime XSE.

I only really noticed issues with oil consumption when I use mobil1, so I try to avoid that.
